This took me sooooo long to read, but not by any fault of the book. It had more to do with me being busy. That being said, this is a pretty good book to read over a long period of time, because it's so relaxing.
I like that the romance was slow-burn friends-to-lovers and took a major back seat. The reconnection of family got all the time it deserved, and it was great. On the other hand, some of the parental drama was super frustrating. I totally understand where both sides were coming from, but poor communication like that drives me crazy.
That being said, this isn't my favorite Sarah Dessen book, but it was a good time.
